VTrak M-Class Product Manual

Network Connections

VTrak has an RJ-45 Management Port connector on the back of its cabinet. This is a Gigabit Ethernet connector designed to connect to your network. The VTrak becomes a node on your network like any other PC, server or other component with an IP address.

VTrak ships from the factory an IP address of 10.0.0.1. You must change this address to one that will work with your network. You make the initial IP address setting using the CLI or CLU. See “VTrak Setup with CLI or CLU” on page 29.

Connectivity LED Activity LED

LEDs			State
	Dark	Amber		Green	Flashing Green
Connectivity	10BaseT	1000BaseT		100BaseT	n/a
Activity	No activity	n/a		n/a	Activity

“n/a” means this state does not apply to this LED.

Note that VTrak Management Port can accept IP address assignments from a DHCP server. Use VTrak's Command Line Utility (CLU) to enable this feature. If you have not activated DHCP support but there is a DHCP server on your network, there is a chance that it will inadvertently assign the VTrak's Management Port IP address to another node. You might see a warning to this effect on your PC's monitor. If this happens, WebPAM PROe may not be able to connect. See your network administrator to work out a suitable arrangement.
